Volson spent six seasons at NDSU but didn’t crack a starting role until 2019, where his versatility to play in both tackle spots helped the Bisons win four FCS Championships. He was named First-team All-MVFC for three years straight (2019-2021).
Volson grew up in Balfour, North Dakota, a town with a population of just 27, and played offensive line, defensive line, tight end, full back, linebacker, punter, and kicker on his high school’s nine-man football team.
Tycen Anderson
Tycen Anderson out of Toledo was the Cincinnati Bengals’ second safety selected in the 2022 NFL Draft after Dax Hill, possibly due to Jessie Bates III playing on the franchise tag in 2022.
Anderson impressed scouts at the NFL Combine, where he ran a 4.36 40-yard dash. This came after he played 55 games for the Toledo Rockets, racking up 237 tackles, nine TFLs, and two interceptions. He was named First-team All-MAC in 2021.
Jeffrey Gunter
Outside linebacker Jeffrey Gunter was the Cincinnati Bengals’ final draft selection in 2022 after the North Carolina native posted 10 TFLs, two forced fumbles, and six sacks in 2021. Gunter initially committed to Coastal Carolina in 2017 and spent two seasons with the Chanticleers before transferring to NC State to be closer to home in 2019. However, after sitting out one year as per NCAA transfer rules, he moved back to Coastal Carolina.
Gunter was twice named First-team All-Sun Belt in 2018 and 2020 and Second-team All-Sun Belt in 2021.
He graduated with a bachelor's degree in economics in December 2020 and is working towards a second degree in communications.
